Artist Statement: Color and line are the basic elements of my paintings. Colors especially strike a chord within me, they excite me. My goal is harmony, a meshing of color and line into the whole to create a strong image. Because I’m stressing the underlying elements, the content of my paintings varies from scenes of nature to pictures in which people are the focus. My painting style is meant to be precise, no mater what the subject is, the image should be clear and immediately accessible to the viewer.
